    Anonymous ,

    Ok then! Added a column to check on whether the customer had 1. Here is my pbix. Count of 1 and 2

     

    Sum of 2 = 

var _code = 2
var _calc = CALCULATE([Sum of Amount],'Count'[Code]=2,'Count'[IF Customer has 1]>=1)


return _calc

    Hi Anonymous ,

    This is the new Sum of 2, which does not need the Calculated Column.  Had to go to another guy on the leaderboards jdbuchanan71 .

    Whew!

    Sum of 2 =
VAR _CustList =
    CALCULATETABLE (
        INTERSECT (
            CALCULATETABLE ( DISTINCT ( 'Count'[Customer] ), 'Count'[Code] = 1 ),
            CALCULATETABLE ( DISTINCT ( 'Count'[Customer] ), 'Count'[Code] = 2 )
        ),
        ALLEXCEPT ( 'Count', 'Count'[Customer] )
    )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Count'[Amount] ),
        'Count'[Customer] IN ( _CustList ),
        KEEPFILTERS ( 'Count'[Code] = 2 )
    )

Hi Nathaniel_C 


This is equation I modified.

Sum of 2 (New) = 
VAR _CustList =
    CALCULATETABLE ( DISTINCT ( 'Count'[Customer] ), 'Count'[Code] = 1 )
RETURN
    CALCULATE ( 
        SUM ( 'Count'[Amount] ),
        'Count'[Customer] IN ( _CustList ),
        'Count'[Code] = 2)

I'm so curious why it's empty for (ZZ, Sum of 2 (New) ) and the total is correct, it's very very strange. how come?

Like all measures that act differently than we think it should it's all about filter context. If we take the line for Item NN as an example:
The first part of your measure

VAR _CustList =
    CALCULATETABLE ( DISTINCT ( 'Count'[Customer] ), 'Count'[Code] = 1 )

gets the filter context of [Item] = NN (from the line in the visual) and you add the filter [Code] = 1. This returns a list of customers, in this case A, B, C (those are the only customers with [Item] NN and [Code] 1.

Then the second line

    CALCULATE ( 
        SUM ( 'Count'[Amount] ),
        'Count'[Customer] IN ( _CustList ),
        'Count'[Code] = 2)

Calculates the SUM and applies 3 filters.
1. The [Item] filter from the visual of NN
2. The list from VAR _CustList: (A, B, C)
3. [Code] = 2 which only appears on lines for customers (D, E)

So you are asking it to SUM ( 'Count'[Amount] ) for customers (A, B, C) from these lines:

Customer Code Item Amount
E 2 NN 1400
D 2 NN 1100

No lines match all the criteria so we get a blank.
